First foray into tattoos

Hi all,

I'm very heavily pierced and have admired and longed for a tattoo for a long long long time.
Lately I have been experimenting with transfers. It's been great fun trying different designs on different parts of my body.
I've settled on the sort of thing I like and the places I like tattoos to be.
I'm really into stars - particularly like the pic below -

It's a massive commitment though - with piercings you can just take them out.
I guess I'll continue as I am doing - maybe try having transfers 24x7 for a month or two and if I still like it then make it real.

Hi -yv- I thought that tattoo was real! lol..... I am really surprised that you have never been tattooed! I find tattoos easier than piercings. But, after the paw I am not so scared of piercings anymore. Please check your inbox as I may have an idea about transfers.

Left side - Ear Lobes 1,2,3 Daith, Helix, Rook and Lower Conch.

Right side -Ear Lobes 1,2,3 Daith, "Paw" piercing towards the top of my ear, Tragus, Nostril, Helix and sadly retired Eyebrow. Re-pierced now next to the old one.

Thanks for your mail Mazzy - I will reply to that via mail.
Thanks for the info on semi-permanent Hazel - I quite like the idea of that - actually living with a design for a week or two rather than a day or two with a transfer. And thanks for the info about geometric designs. I thought they would have been easier but maybe that is the non-artistic engineer in me.

And Dragonsoup - "the decision was taken from me" - I'm curious - please tell me more about this.
